In mexico we did a huge ceremony lasting over an hour every monday, and on some special days. There was the anthem. some nerds carring around a falg, marching in circles. then there was an oath to the falg. The calss in charge would also do some sort of play or dance or something wich they usually reahearesed for months. And then there whould be anouncments. So even if it was every monday instead of every day the time invested was probably more than in the us.

When i was in a religious school there would also be prayer and some bullshit. But mexico has a long history of facism, only turkey comes close.
